St. Paul's Childhood Center is a non-profit center sponsored by St. Paul's United Church of Christ. SPCC serves children six weeks to twelve years old (Summer School Age Program), in the beautiful and historic Summit/Grand Avenue area. SPCC is a participant in the Parent Aware program and is a four star (out of four) center. The mission of SPCC is to provide the community with a safe, engaging environment for early learning that fosters physical, cognitive, social/emotional development, as well as promotes a positive sense of individuality through a community-inclusive, child-interactive, arts infused emergent curriculum.

 We are licensed by the state of MN, and are proud to offer a place for early learning with low ratios, and a highly qualified and dedicated staff. SPCC is located at Summit Ave and Milton St. in the east wing of St. Paul’s UCC., across from William Mitchell College, and in the heart of the Grand Avenue business district. SPCC has been providing the community an exceptional resource for early childhood education for nearly forty years.

Our facility includes spacious classrooms full of natural light, a superb large muscle room, an artist’s studio, a playground with a whimsical playhouse, and a nurturing staff dedicated to the field of early childhood education.

SPCC is currently enrolling toddlers, preschoolers and school aged children for summer as well as before and after school care! Our first infant opening is March 2010.
